3 What are the solutions to the equation?

x2 = 3x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

2x = 3x + 10

2x - 3x = 10

-x = 10

x = - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = 3x + 10

x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0

find the 2 numbers that subtract to be 3 and multiply to be - 10

the 2 numbers are - 5 and 2

(x - 5) (x + 2)

find the zeroes or roots or solutions ...

by setting the 2 equations to 0 but you can just switch the signs. (keep in mind that the amount of solutions needed is given by the highest power (x^2))

x = 5, - 2
